Umar Razaq, 28, left, shut down his account as he faced a vicious backlash from disgusted locals.

He groomed victim “Lizzie” when she was only 12 and passed her onto four other men who raped her. Razaq was jailed for four and a half years in 2010 for having sex with a child.

But his sentence was cut to three-and-a-half years on appeal and he was freed within a year.

Lizzie, now 19, says Razaq started stalking her earlier this summer by following her boyfriend Jack on Facebook. “It was like he was taunting me, saying he could see what I was doing and was watching me,’’ she said.

But the pervert appeared to have shut down his Facebook account yesterday and police were understood to be probing Lizzie’s claims.

This week Razaq flew to Pakistan as the full scandal of the abuse of 1,400 girls by sex gangs in the South Yorkshire town over 16 years was revealed in a report.

Recently posting a selfie in sunglasses on Facebook, Razaq wrote: “Three days and I’m outta this ­country for a very long time. Feeling happy.’’

On Wednesday he boasted online he was “living the high life” on a “holiday of a lifetime”.
